Authorities in Mississippi have received numerous questions from residents about recovery assistance following the winter weather storm in January.
According to officials, the state has been approved for Public Assistance, which covers damages to local government infrastructure. However, requests for Individual Assistance, which would aid homeowners, are still under review.
Public Assistance aims to support local governments in disaster response and recovery efforts, while Individual Assistance is intended to help individual residents impacted by the storm, officials said.
Officials emphasized that residents should stay informed as they await further updates on the approval of individual aid programs.
